Linguistic
reorganisation
|
Why reorganization:
- To accommodate the
diversity and bring in the homogeneity and harmony in
administration.
- also after the
integration of 100s of princely states and presence of
ill-administered units of British India.
Dhar commission and JVP the commission rejected the idea
2nd SRC: (FAZL ALI
COMMISSION)
- Accepted linguistic basis
but national identity should not be threatened
- rejected the principle of
one language one state eg. Bombay and Gujarat, Punjab and Haryana
- Other factors like
- administrative and
financial viability
- viable unit of plan
development
Merit:

or religion
- Language is the most
important aspect of a culture

tounges

participation
- Accountability

- Protection of regional
lanugages
De-merits:
- Regionalism:
balkanisation, Domino effect
- difficulty information
of a National identity
- Emergence of Hindi as
official language will be difficult
- Inter-state and center
state co-ordination
- Other parameters: like
development, ethinicity etc: which led to the further reorganization
like Jharkhand, Telangana
Govt.'s response to state
demands:
- 4 steps: development,
accommodation, partial autonomy & finally full autonomy.
- Special developmental
package eg. Bundelkhand and development boards like Vidarbha
- Accommodation:

state closer to people

resources: Jharkhad and Bihar

identity crisis, ethnic groups, language
- Issues:
- Defining what is small
- disputes: interstate
and C-S due to sharing of resources, water etc
- Small is not equal to
better Human development
- Health care: highest in
Kerala (small) and lowest in Jharkhand (small)
- Economic viability:
- North Easters states
are dependent on center for 80% of the budget
- Over machinery
and duplication of resources

center
- Integrity and unity due
to regionalism
- Transfer of power from
Old to new capital, strengthen Democracy.
- We have the system of 3rd
tier, what is needed is effective implementation and utilization of
these local bodies
- Solution:

and 74th amendment act
- Balanced socio-economic
development

analysis
Need of 2nd SRC::
- Inter-state and intra

Maharashtra- Mumbai Vs Vidharbh
- Administrative
inviability:
- Conflicts:
- rising Inter
state disputes like water and land
- Demands of regionalism
- 20 years of LPG:
- Migration
- Skewed
development
- Demographic changes
- Objective criteria
- Evolving process

utilization of resources
- Strengthening the spirit
of Cooperative federalism
Telangana:
